I need to weight them and post. I'm thinking about 23lbs each.
Michelin PSS 285/35R19 will be wrapped on these bad boys :burnrubber:

Nice! Looking forward to seeing pics!

Nice! I bet you'll be really happy with the Super Sports.

I have an accurate scale for weighing people so I tried my best with the wheel on there and it weighs 23lbs max. I'd say even 22.5lbs.

Very nice!

Got the ZL1 belly pan. Advice on hardware to bolt on belly pan, go to Fastenal and save money on the bolts and washers (stainless) because GM sells them for like 4$ a piece (not stainless). Belly pan should help keep the engine bay clean.

It should also help alleviate some lift at speed (Bernoulli's Principle), but yeah, the less road dust in the engine bay is a definite plus :).

Are you doing hood extractors or leaving it stock?

I plan on leaving my hood stock for now. Hex vents look great but I do love my stock hood for some reason :iono:

I cant wait for spring! Garage floor will be cleaned and car is going to be taken out for the first time in 5 months and put on candles for some fresh Amsoil 10w30! First drive will have to be down to New Hampshire and Vermont because roads here SUCK! Can't wait! Pics with new wheels mounted are going to come within the next 2 weeks

Installed the 19x10 OZ wheels and micheling pss 285 35 R19 tires. AMAZING. What a difference in every way. Changes the car. Only downside is that with an overall diameter of 26.9 inches and a 1 inch drop, my headers now scrape easily with only about 2 and a half inch ground clearance. I dont know why the Dynatech headers sit so low?
Anyway its a great way to start the season. First time it has been out in 5 months!

Those mags transform your car and complement the colour scheme very nicely indeed! :clap2:

What a difference in feeling. I would never suggest 20 inch wheels for this platform after experiencing light weight 19s. The car is much more nimble and even takes uneven road surfaces better than before. There is just THAT much more input and feel from the suspension and steering wheel.
Very excited to go to the track!

Changed out the exhaust clamps and rubber insulators (single ones closest to diff) for new OEM pieces because the clamps had developed a small leak and the insulators were tired. I guess 3 years of taking off and installing the exhaust for mods will do that?! Have driven the car twice but Montreal is not the place to drive right now. Hopefully I can come down to New Hampshire or whereabouts to STRETCH my Camaros legs a bit?
Which state in north eastern U.S.A is the ''most lenient'' for driving quickly??
